They're talking specifically about 5AA who spends 23 weeks of the season bagging SANFL, then hops on during the finals.

so RPH should. the AA bandwagon is bigger then the south one. at least RPH are there every week and can offer a little better than "dale lewis"

I had a laugh at a comment on 5RPH yesterday, I think it was made by Paul Blandis. He said they were no Bandwagoners, and there were two other radio stations covering the game trying to work out what they are watching ... they think it's a Carlton v Collingwood game. :)

Just to get the facts right


"Most comprehensive coverage of the SANFL" IS one of our sayings.

- In a radio environment it is simply no contest

- In 2006 we broadcast more games than ALL the other broadcasters combined

- On some weeks we were covering SANFL six days a week

- No radio station in the 129 year old history of the SANFL has broadcast live 44 games in the minor round.

- No other station in 2006 provided live crosses from other grounds


- It is something the Australian Sports Commission recognised last year when out of all the media outlets in the country our SANFL coverage won the inaugaural award for "Best Commitment To The Coverage of Sport"


- You could make some argument re how our coverage matches up against The Advertiser or Web Sites ... but how do compare ??


- I have taken the comments on this site re finals coverage on board (be careful of what you ask for, you just might get it) and accept my / our SHORTCOMINGS, however aiming to provide the most comprehsive SANFL coverage possible is NOT one of them.



I don't believe we would or have EVER said we have more listeners.

Phil, I commend RPH on the great work that they are doing. As far as I am concerned there is only one radio station that backs SANFL football. Phil and boys, thank you so much for what you do!!!
